Making his way through the crowd while occasionally making sure Kaelli is still following, the coat toatin' feline steps right up as requested. "Oh! Oh!" Stuck in the crowd, Dio puts his arms in the air and begins waving for the bear's attention. "I desire to test the the metal o' my frame an' win fame, fortune, glory, an' bobbles!"

Kalt slowly makes her way through the crowd, her poncho pulled tightly down over her form to keep wandering eyes away for the most part... Although, the Sheep folk Nurse following after her, chattering incistantly into her ear does indeed draw some attention. "... And that's why I'm more than happy to bring you out to the square Kalt~ You can help me pick out the next batch of cloth for the new stuffed animals I'm making, and oooo~ I could make one of you! What do you say?" The Vixen's ears pressed flat as the woman speaks, before she spots the Carny and grins gently, turning on a heel to face her escort. "Uhm... M'havin' a better idea, why don'tcha pick out some cloth, an' I pick out sumptin, an' then we go an' make them all surprised together eh?" The Sheep woman giggling happily at the suggestion, before hugging the Vixen as she runs off.

With the Vixen now free from her escort, she's left to sigh in relief as she makes her way over to the scene. "S'cuse me, pardon, thank you kindly... AH! Hey there Rainer, an' Flora. Goin' up to do this all an' see if'n you got what it takes eh?" A pleased grin crossing her muzzle as she looks to the friendly faces, giving a chuckle at Dio before shifting her position to peer more openly at the machine.

There was a thing! A new thing! And what feline didn't enjoy nosing about shiny new THINGS?! Ears perked up, the pale tigress followed her companion's lead and moved over towards the little leverage-based contraption. Tail flicking about in curiosity, Kaelli examined the bear and his device through the crowd for a moment before looking over to Dio's enthusiastic display. One hand rising, the feline concealed a grin behind her fingers while the crowd mostly masked her faint giggle.

The bear looks out over the crowd, he has two fresh ones, and he points out towards Kaelli and Dio. "Felines abound, come on around! Seen that and I think you've got the itching, why don't we get you going? It's just a crown!" he says with a smile, gesturing out over the table. "And we do have bobbles sir! I bet you'd go great with this little one here! What do you say?" he adds, the boar from before rubbing the back of is head and patting his belly fat with a laugh before lurking off to the side for his friends to rip and or cheer him up.

Issi hmms, watching Kaelli and Dio step up to the machine. There was some trick to this, but it was just a contraption. She keeps to the back of the crowd watching what goes on. Its not that she just thinks that its probably not going to be something anyone was going to win. Given that it was just a game made sense. She shrugs, her mind liked to wander like that. It was something to do and watch for the day to alleviate boredom.

"How, exactly, was there never a need for a thing that you can smash with a hammer and not break before?" Rainer is unconvinced of Flora's reasoning, and he fixes the tiger with a skeptical squint, though he can hardly keep the kid-in-a-candy-store grin off his face in the presence of so much spectacle, showing off all his teeth when he turns that smile on Kalt. "You bet. I'm just giving some folks a chance to embarass themselves before I get up there and style all over them, y'know, hahaha!" His hands to go his hips, then, and he immediately after angles his head down to look at them, like he realized something that ought to be there was missing. "Oh, uh... right. I kinda threw my coin pouch away the other day. Can y'spare a Crown?" Thus he fixes the fox with his best pleading puppydog face.

"Flora isn't going to try, no.. Flora'll just watch, yes... Flora doesn't like lifting heavy things. Also, miss Kalt can follow Flora to the manor afterwards, yes. Flora has some designs for the arm, yes yes," she murrs with a smirk, tails swaying behind her, before she looks at the device again, almost as if mentally taking it apart. "There are things that don't break when being hit... But there's very few uses in daily life for a little metal thing to move when you hit another part of the device... And then hits that little metal... Thing on the top. Flora suspects it's meant to make some sound... Guns excluded, but since beings have to power this device, Flora doubts the little metal bit can go fast enough to do lasting damage."

Dio rubs his hands together in excitement and grins. "Alright then, let's make this interestin'." Digging into his coat pocket for a few moments, he pulls out two golden crown coins and puts one in Kaelli's hands. "I'm a bettin' man o' sorts I'm sure ya know. So let's see..." The lion scratches his chin, looks towards the contraption, and then back at Kaelli. "If ya manage to ring the bell an' I don't, then... I'll take a bath o' somethin'! An' if I ring it an' ya don't, then... Hmm... 'ow 'bout ya tell 'ow ya really feel 'bout this ol' lion 'ere? An' if we both hit it, then I suppose we'll just go get some lunch. Either way, lasses first an' all."

Kalt snerks gently at Rainer, and reaches into her poncho to pull out two coins, tossing one to him and holding the other herself. "Fine, but M'gonna make it interestin'. If'n I get better than you with one arm, than you're gonna have to go cleanin' out the manor gardens an' such... An' if'n I lose to you, then you get a free meal from me." She nods to Flora as the listens, before patting the satchel at her sides. "Right then, got some other stuff to go showin' you that were handed to me." Her gaze then turning to the scene at hand as she grins and waits to see how successful the two felines would be.

Kaelli rather enjoyed games and showmanship and so had no hesitation in joining in on this strange contest! Winding her way through the crowd, the tigress canted her head gently as she gazed up at the top of the device for a moment before those mismatched eyes drifted over to peek at the prize-baubles. She DID enjoy trinkets.. Feeling the press of the metal against her palm, she sends the coin dancing across her knuckles as she listens to the lion's wager. Laughing at the bet, the tigress nods in agreement and exclaims, "A deal!"

Stepping up to the contraption, the feline hands the crown to the bear and moves to take a turn as the boar had before her. It seemed a simple enough concept - get hammer, hit target, ring bell-thing. Right? Right! Hefting the hammer for balance, the tigress gave it a shot and sent the mallet down against the target!

The tigress strikes hard, sending the bell up to the near top, a little tick and the sign simply say "ALMOST", and yet... as it starts to decend there is a faint tink! "Well! You DID do it, so here you go!" the bear says as he hands the bobble to Kaelli, smiling and pushing the hammer at Dio. "Let's see what you have!" THe crowd seems impressed and cheers for Kaelli.

Issi nods. This little contraption was interesting. It was working, and it did what it was supposed to do, play a little game. She keeps watching. Someone like her was not very strong, well not unless she started putting magic behind her moves. Still she suspects that if she was picked, she'd at least try. The smaller viper switches feet to lean on, as she keeps watching.

Rainer takes a partial bow as a show of gratitude to Kalt as he catches the coin out of the air. "Isn't it already exciting? I'll take that bet, if you need the incentive, though." He twirls the coin back and forth between his fingers, not even keeping an eye on it as he instead observes Kaelli and Dio's attempts. "Haha, looks like it's not that hard, kinduv a shame. When I win that bobble it's yours, only fair, seeing it's your coin and all, so don't even try to refuse out of stubborn pride, or something!" And then another thought occurs. "What is a bobble, anyway?" He looks to Flora, "You know what a bobble is?"

Flora looks at Rainer with a raised brow, before gesturing at Kaelli, then at the carnie. "Both of them have one or more bobbles, yes... Ask them?" she mumbles, raising a brow at Kalt and her satchel, her tails puffing up lightly, before she brushes it down and looks back to the device, again studying its make-up and flicking her ears.

"Oh hoh!" Dio claps his hands together and cheers lightly at Kaelli's display. "Not too bad, lass. Not too bad." A shame though, considering how he wouldn't be able to obtain his part of the bet, but such is life for those who choose to gamble. "Now I'll really 'ave that bell screamin'." Confidence abound, the lion grips the hammer and stands in front of the contraption. Making sure to get nice an lined up, he hovers the tool over the target area for a few moments, rears back, and slams down upon it with all his leonine might!

Kalt chears at Kaelli, before turning to grin at Rainer. "I ain't needin' the bobble, but alright then. S'more to see if'n I can beatcha with one arm an' all!" A quick nod of her head given before she raises her hand for the Carny to see as she tries to get a bit closer for him to see the vixen as well.

Kaelli surveyed the progress of her attempt and simply gave a laugh of enjoyment at the little distraction. Bowing to the carnie in thanks, she took her little prize and moved off to the side to let her companion take his turn. Noting a few people in the crowd she recognized, the feline gave a little wave before watching Dio's strike. She had a feeling she was going to lose this bet, eyes following the little marker as it sailed up the board.

The bell rings clear as Dio smacks the hammer down, and the bear smiles and says "Well wasn't that something? You're made of some tough stuff, take this medal of your power." in a jesting tone, as he hands Dio a bobble and grins. "Anyone else, for this?" he says as he gestures to the device, and the crowd cheers for Dios victory.

Issi claps as Dio manages to ring the bell, well that was two who managed to best it. She glances over at Flora and Kalt... The one armed one she recognizes, though Flora not so much. The tigress has changed since she last saw her a long time ago. Kalt must be talking the arm she drew up. It should be interesting to see her reaction to the designs.

Rainer slicks his ears back and raises his eyebrows at the response from the tigress. "Well sheesh, here I thought you had all the answers." His tone is playful, and he follows it up by aiming a wink at Flora, but his attention soon turns back to Kalt and he waits for her to be acknowledged before he thrusts his donated Crown way up over his head and waves it around, bouncing up and down on the balls of his feet in what is likely more effort than he need expend to get the bear's attention. "Ahaha this is gonna to be -great-!"

Kalt makes her way into the clearing then to walk over and hold out the crown for the Carny with a grin. "M'gonna take you up on that." She says, waiting for him to take the payment, before reaching down to switch over her soul gems and get ready.

Flora blinks a few times. "Nobody has all the answers, no... Flora doesn't believe anyone does, not even the Creators... Although they have many more answers than Flora, yes yes. Lots of answers that beings still need to discover," she murrs, before leaning back and watching Kalt. "Miss Kalt said she had something to look at?" she mumbles after a while, a slight frown just barely visible on her snout, before she moves to the side. "As for having knowledge of things, Flora does not usually dabble in... Games of this sort, no.

Dio gives his muscles a good flex and hands the hammer down to the next contestant. Taking his prize in hand and soaking up the crowd's cheers, he heads back towards Kaelli and puts an arm around her shoulder. "A good game! As fer the bet, I suppose we'll be gettin' some lunch together after this. What 're ya feelin'? Ya know, there 're a bunch o' those new creator meals that beings 'ave started servin'. I 'ear that they're pretty good!"
